Windows Mixed Reality

Taking the web to the 3rd dimension

Windows Mixed Reality includes AR with HoloLens and VR with headsets like Samsung Odyssey that connect to desktop PCs.

As the owner of the browser app in Mixed Reality, I define the vision and principles for near and far future releases, drive functional requirements, and manage various cross-team collaborations to deliver a familiar product to unique form factors.

A Full-Featured VR Browser

From concept to completion I managed the bring up of Microsoft Edge in VR, along with the app experience around WebVR, which lets developers present VR experiences directly in the browser using common web technologies.

I illustrated scenarios to help us envision a product that wasn’t so easy to imagine at the time.

I used interaction maps and flow charts to break down scenarios into discrete parts I could design for.

New Tech is Tricky

Challenges have included major technical limitations, combined with the serious ambiguity of a very new product space. Clearly defined and communicated goals, requirements, scenarios, and design choices have been key to making progress.
